Baby Shower Surprises!

I feel so lucky to have such wonderful friends and a wonderful family. Weekend before last, several of my very good friends in Nashville gave me a baby shower for Cain. I will never be able to thank all my friends for their love and support!

I also received one of the best surprises of my life this same weekend. The day before the shower Brad and I were out running errands all day. We finally got back home around 4:00 in the afternoon and when we were getting out of our car I noticed a car driving into our driveway. At first I didn't recognize the car but all of a sudden I realized it was my MOM!!!! She had decided to surprise me by driving up from Louisiana for my baby shower. I ran to the car and realized my 3 Aunts were also in the car. I was speechless. Which if you know me....I'm not speechless very often!

Everyone started piling out of the car for hugs and I finally realized not only had my mom and 3 aunts traveled up to see me, my mom's best friend and my best friend's mom were also part of the surprise. Yep, that's right 6 ladies all crammed into my mom's car and made the 8 hour drive up to surprise me for my baby shower.

I can't begin to explain how much this meant to me. It was so good to see everyone. And it meant the world to me to have my family in town for my baby shower. It is something I will never forget.

To everyone who was part of making this weekend so special for me, I can't thank you enough. I love each and everyone of you so very much!!!!
